The Powder Toy

tavninder

I have found a problem while experimenting with powder toy:

1. make a container of wood (use thick/big brush size)

2. pour gell in the container

3. spray the container with neutrons

4. the gell sinks into the wood

WHY DOSE THE GELL SINK INTO THE WOOD THIS IS VERY WEIRD AND FICTION LIKE.

mm that's because the wood moves under influence of the neutrons allowing the gell to sink in the newly created space, so no bug

Because neutrons are inside other elements and themselves are penetrable, they create an empty spot in the wood for water to "sink into". Then water goes into the hole created by NEUT and so it sinks.

Plus, it works with all liquids.

but since the pixel size of the elements is so big, in the real world it wouldn't be as noticeable as you simulated it.

Yeah but that's off-topic ;D XD

Tpt hasn't got scale it's just meant for fun. neutrons are apparently as big as c-4 molecules but in real live that wouldn't make any sense, so don't bother about that

Well it isn't an error.

tavninder

well thanks

Actually, this is because of a glitch. I'll see if it's possible to fix, but I think this was pointed out before and not fixed, maybe there's a reason.

No jacob1! I am making a factory that utilizes this effect! Don't kill it now! D:

Okay, I don't have access to the official source anyway. I do like useful glitches like this, but the other developers don't and it could be fixed in the future (although it has been in the game a very long time)
